In Arizona, the story of the Cardinals streak-busting 38-10 win over the visiting Detroit Lions on Sunday at University of Phoenix Stadium would be the dominating Arizona defense. The credit for the win goes to defensive coordinator Ray Horton's unit.

The Lions won the coin toss and deferred until the second half. The Cardinals went right to work on offense, with rookie Ryan Lindley connecting with first-year wide receiver Michael Floyd for a nice 25-yard gain. That was followed by a 14-yard scamper by running back LaRod Stephens-Howling.
